"The sharpness of tone and brilliance of tempo achieved by Carl St.Clair... and his ability to conjure exhilarating and, as required, finely structured chamber sounds from a Staatskapelle that has been precisely yet flexibly rehearsed in terms of tone and articulation ...e indicative of great musical intelligence and artistic energy." - Suddeutsche Zeitung. "Carl St.Clair is adept at handling both the apocalyptic mood of the music and the translucent shimmering of the forest. A brilliant achievement." - Frankfurter Rundschau
